Google Trying To Attract iPhone App Developers With Free Phones?

Apparently Palm isn’t the only one who is trying to ramp up app development for its mobile application store, as word is going around that Google is actively trying to attract iPhone app developers to develop apps for the Android platform. It seems that a representative from the Android Advocacy Group contacted Texts From Last Night’s creator to establish a relationship, as well as ship a free Nexus One phone, regardless of whether he picked up the project or not. This is quite a contrasting move, as Apple rejected the Texts From Last Night app from its App Store before this. There isn’t any indication of how widespread this campaign is, but if you’re a developer and if you’re offered a free phone, would you take it?
